The bike kinda builds itself,
all I do is put it together.

The Hitchcock Rigid Conversion

Mission Statement

This blog has been set up as a record of my attempt to build a cool Bobber style bike out of the Royal Enfield Bullet. With the cost of genuine early British and American bikes and parts spiralling upwards in the face of the current global economic climate, building a retro style custom is rapidly becoming cost prohibitive. Initially, there will be a period of accruing parts and information as the bike I intend to re-create is my daily rider.
I have heard so many horror stories about the Indian made Bullet from people who's mate used to have one, that I have lost count. All I can say is that I have covered over 20,000 miles on mine in the last three and a half years, and feel happy that it is quite capable of doing another 20.
So if you like the idea or just curious, you are welcome to come along for the ride.

Jim's New Project


Jim from Maryland sent me this picture of his 500 that he has recently acquired, and a very clean example it looks too. Although he doesn't intend to go the hard tail route (at the moment) he is planning quite a lot of mods, centring around a vintage theme. Maybe, what we call over here "The Colonial Style". He has said that he will keep us up to date with progress and pics as things develop. Nice Jim, looking forward to it.
